The gym started out empty. With the final bell echoing in the hallway outside, students started to leave. Then a louder echo flowed into the gym. The echo of voices coming down the hallway, laughing, talking, yelling even. Then it went quiet again, as if waiting for something to happen.
A few minutes later, the doors burst open as the fastest changers on the team rushed through the doors to prop them open. Then they ran back outside, talking loudly. A few moments later, girls struggled into the gym with bars that took two or three to carry. Another two pushed a large upright hanger that held carefully folded nets. Finally, two girls pushed trollys filled to the top with white and orange balls. They took their place up against the wall and began checking each ball, pressing their hands on the sides and deciding which ones needed to be filled with air.
The other girls got to work setting up the net. All the while chattering and laughing while the stragglers or extras started passing, warming up for practice.
Castille came in somewhere in the middle, after all the people needed were putting up the nets She dumped her jacket on the retracted bleachers, shaking the ipod buds out of ears and cutting Keith Urban short. She bounced a couple times, then bent to adjust her sock in her volleyball shoes. Today she sported practice spandex shorts in deep blue, and a grey shirt with "Meadowview volleyball" stamped on it with "Yeah, we are that awesome" in smaller letters underneath it. She pulled out her two buns and let her hair fall down to just above her shoulders, shaking it out while her friend Shea shouted "Shake it out giiiiiirl!" she laughed and pulled it into a tight ponytail, and got to work, taking a ball and setting it by her feet, stretching her arms out above her head while rolling her ankle from side to side.
The coaches had not arrived yet, so everything seemed relaxed.
